Mahatma Gandhi
Your beliefs become your thoughts, Your thoughts become your words, Your words become your actions, Your actions become your habits, Your habits become your values, Your values become your destiny.
Mahatma Gandhi
Aggressive civil disobedience should be confined to a vindication of the right of free speech and free association.
Mahatma Gandhi
If the poet spun for half an hour daily, his poetry would gain in richness.
Mahatma Gandhi
Non-co-operation is not a movement of drag, bluster or bluff.
Mahatma Gandhi
The seeker after truth should be humbler than the dust. The world crushes the dust under its feet, but the seeker after truth should so humble himself that even the dust could crush him. Only then, and not till then, will he have a glimpse of truth.
Mahatma Gandhi
You never know where your actions will lead to. But if you don't do anything they will lead you nowhere.
Mahatma Gandhi
We dare not enter the kingdom of liberty with mere life-homage to truth and nonviolence.
Mahatma Gandhi
Whatever does not exist in the body can't be found in the universe, and whatever exists in the universe can be found in the body.
Mahatma Gandhi
